Cartoon Cartoons is a collective name that is used by
Cartoon Network for their original series running from 1996 to 2003. The majority of them were produced by
Hanna-Barbera and/or
Cartoon Network Studios. The concept of Cartoon Cartoons was spearheaded by
Fred Seibert, and originated from his animation anthology series,
What a Cartoon! (later re-titled to
The Cartoon Cartoon Show). Once their popularity had grown, the Cartoon Cartoons were featured on the network's Friday night programming block, Cartoon Cartoon Fridays.
